What sets price in Houston Place is condition and vintage, not a uniform product. With homes built anywhere from 1959 to 2024 and a median build year around 1983, this is a mixed-age pocket where a renovated newer build and a dated original sit under the same community name. The median sits near $391,624, but that single figure hides a wide spread driven by how much work a given home does or doesn't need.
Market posture right now favors patience on both sides. A median 125 days on market is slow, and with 9 active listings against a small base of 16 homes, supply is meaningful relative to the community's size. Sellers should price to condition and expect a longer runway; buyers have room to be selective and to negotiate rather than chase.
The 60-Second Overview

The Houston Place buying strategy.
If we were buying in Houston Place today, this is the order of operations we would run for our clients.
Underwrite the condition first. Price the roof, HVAC, and systems honestly before judging any list price; condition swings value here more than square footage alone.
Match the home to real comps. Recent sales of similar condition and lot, not the asking price, tell you what a home is worth.
Move deliberately, not desperately. Neither side has a decisive edge, so a well-prepared, fairly-priced offer wins without overpaying.
Line up financing and inspection early. A pre-approval and an inspection plan let you act fast and negotiate from evidence.
Keep an agent in your corner. The listing agent works for the seller; we represent you and prepare a hand-built valuation before any offer in Houston Place.
A mixed-vintage pocket, priced by condition
The defining feature here is range. A build span from 1959 to 2024 means you are not shopping one era or one floor plan; you are evaluating each home on its own merits. The median living area of roughly 2,512 square feet points to real size, but square footage alone won't tell you whether a property has been updated or is due for work — that distinction is what moves the number.
No community amenities show up in current MLS listings, so value lives in the individual home and lot rather than shared facilities. A homestead share around 41% suggests a meaningful non-owner-occupied presence, which is worth weighing if consistent owner-occupancy matters to you. At 125 days on market, deals here reward buyers who do their diligence and sellers who prepare and price honestly.
The location and the amenities are priced into every listing in Houston Place. The deal is won or lost on condition, the comps, and the renovation math.
Why work with Momentum here
In a small community where every home is a different age and condition, comps are thin and easy to misread. We walk each property against its actual peers, help sellers price to the work a buyer will inherit, and help buyers separate a well-kept home from a project priced like one. With a 125-day median, we set expectations on timeline up front rather than after the fact.
